Power BI is an incredible tool that, unfortunately, most people haven’t been able to take full advantage of. After surveying a group at Microsoft’s largest partner conference, we discovered the high demand for a more usable Power BI. So that’s precisely what we delivered. Our integration and delivered pre-built Power BI dashboards reduces the need for technical support and helps users become self-sufficient with Power BI data visualizations and dashboards on day one.
One of the biggest struggles with Power BI is how complicated it is to use without advanced technical knowledge, developer code, or access to pre-organized data. That’s a thing of the past with Cosmos’ Power BI integration. Our custom API allows you to hook Power BI up directly with your Cosmos Dynamics 365 Business Central data model, so you have data to use inside Power BI right away.

And it’s not just inside your Cosmos portal. With this integration, you can have Cosmos-fueled Power BI dashboards and workspaces inside of Teams, CRM, Business Central, and more!!
